The "root directory folder" will more likely than not be named like your domain (eg. example.com)

Thanks. Anyone know how I can find S/FTP or otherwise employ it? I see an option for WebFTP under "Manage domains".

WebFTP pops up a window entitled Connect to AjaXplorer and then asks for a host, a login and a password. It looks like I can choose the S/FTP protocol, but I'm pretty much lost from where it asks for a host.

cpanel > manage domain > webftp

location: mydomain [I kept trying to put an ftp addy - but the domain w/o www worked]
and then user/pass.

This is probably super simple stuff, but it had me stymied!

I then uploaded the site map into the general directory or "root domain" (which was indeed named example.com as the user above helpfully indicated) and it worked!

If anyone else has the prob. I did (not likely!) I'm more than happy to help.

Hello
Thank you for offering
I wanted to find out if anyone knows how to include a sitemap in the root folder, without uploading (since my Weebly free hoster does not have the feature of uploading a sitemap) but using HTML maybe?

I know that for a site to be SE friendly it has to have a sitemap
They told me that mine is created automatically each time I publish a page or updated. But I cannot upload one into my root folder
However, do you or anyone know if it is necessary to upload it, for the crawler to see it?
or it will see it anyway, if it is created automatically, as they say?
They told me it is created at http://www.myname.com/sitemap.xml

I will point out that you're not using our servers, if this is the case
